Math--Rock Math: Hands-on Addition Practice

Description

These activities could be the foundation for young learners to internalize and understand the process involved in addition problems. Please guide each student to see that two smaller sets are combined to make a brand new set with a greater quantity. Try to always use math terms when explaining math concepts to young learners.

Kids love touching real objects. Pebbles feel good to the touch and kids can examine real things while doing math. The included activities provide young learners with the opportunity to think and discover math topics regarding counting, looking at numbers and following a logical sequence.

Easy to follow directions can be projected on board for all kids to see and get a feel for what they will be doing. Educators can effectively add to the instructions provided for additional understanding for each learner.

If you have a camera attached to your board, you can model the sequence in front of children. Thus, kids will listen to your oral instructions, see the written instructions, and move real objects as they investigate math concepts. So all learning style students will find learning success!

All kids will be better problem solvers when they share with each other what they discovered and what they did to make those discoveries.

At the end of this package, activities with the concept of ZERO are found. The concept of zero is a very difficult concept for young learners. Children need multiple opportunities working with the concept of zero before it becomes internalized.

Have fun exploring math!

Sincerely,

Alberto Gutierrez (retired kindergarten teacher)

I have my students collect things such as popcorn, buttons, rocks, or candy to use in the bonds. They take a photo and write the equation.

It sounds like you are applying this resource to long distance learning. Great! Thank you for your nice comments. When I was in the classroom, Kindergarten kids loved touching 'real' objects such as gravel from the science kits. Thus, the idea to keep their interest spilled over to math concepts. The kids were able to take out their template and gravel and practice in groups. They had multiple opportunities to practice math counting and addition skills. It easily became a homework enrichment activity, too. All the best to you and your students. Sincerely, Alberto Gutierrez
